The Vardys review – It has all the makings of a reality classic. But it’s.......... actually deeply dull 02.06.2026

The ITV three-part documentary series "The Vardys," chronicling Jamie Vardy's move to Italian football club Cremonese and his family's relocation to northern Italy, falls short of its potential, despite the compelling backdrop of the "Wagatha Christie" scandal. While Rebekah Vardy's outspoken personality and the legal battle with Coleen Rooney suggest a dramatic narrative, the series is criticized for being "deeply dull." Both Jamie and Rebekah are portrayed as guarded, with Jamie's subdued demeanor and Rebekah's guarded reflections failing to provide engaging television. Even the discussion of the Wagatha case offers little new insight, making the documentary a "strange mixed bag" that neither entertains nor effectively enhances the Vardy's public image.
